What's up man!! Sorry, I must have missed your post! It's good to see you again. How are things in Android land?

1) Rom seems very fast!
2) The extra ring tone sound bytes are AWESOME! (though the ringtones folder has a bunch of redundant ringtones are are already in the rom that can be deleted)
3) Unfortunatley when I go to settings-personal-buttons there is not a way to set a long press of the end key to lock the phone (it appears the only way to do so is via the start menu)
4) I love the facebook icon on the sense slider for each contact, but I think I prefer the stock phone icon for call history (instead of the TP2 image)
5) the notification icons on the slider bar have a transparent background which makes it difficult to see the number of new texts / emails (the stock green background usually looks nice)
6) The I appreciate that many of the 'extras' were set as cabs so I could uninstall many of them, and that you offered a stock clock replacement cab. The only graphical quirk is that I'd prefer the stock icons on the top menu. Any chance of a cab to replace those with the stock?
7) The SIP / soft keyboard works well, but I'd prefer a stock option (cab?) to have the stock look.
 just a small detail and really no big deal, the carrier name is missing from the top left of the clock (I think this has been mentioned earlier)
9) not sure if it is possible with this version of Sense, but an option to remove the RSS widget would also be wonderful
10) the vertical arrow for the task manager is missing (though tapping where it should be does work)
11) the Sharkie405 spash screen is cool, but my taste would be for a stock windows phone splash instead.
12) The home soft key for contacts goes to the windows shell contact manager not to the sense contacts (maybe there is a registry key somewhere that would change that)
13) great work with all the custom icons for the many programs and the sense tab links!
Now that I write all this, maybe I should learn how to cook my own rom  |
1) Thank you!
2) Thanks for pointing this out! No need to be cooking in the same stuff twice.
3) Looking into this...
4) I'm not 100% pleased with my TP2 call history icon either, not sure where I'll go with that...
5) Sorry, I like the clear bubble look
6) Are you talking about the top taskbar icons? If so, I love the ones I'm using. I'm not sure about a cab to revert to stock, but I may see about installing them as a cab in the future so they can be removed is one so chooses.
7) Installing the SIP skin as a cab at boot is also a possibility here for future releases...
8 )Yes, the carrier name not showing is fixed already so future release will have this.
9) An option to remove the RSS widget already exists in \Cabs\CHT v1.8.5. It's the MobileUnderground.Info Remove RSS feed something or other cab.
10) I noticed this and meant to look into it and just forgot. Will be looked into for future releases.
11) Stock splash screen? Yuck! You can change this yourself ya' know... Name your .gif "animated" and drop it in your \Windows directory.
12) I'm not sure off of the top of my head how to do that. I can't say that I'd want to really. I like using WM Contacts which is why I have it set as the LSK.
13) Thank you!
Yes, you should learn to cook! It's the only way to get the ROM that's absolutely perfect for you!

Yeah, v1.3 is a better more stable ROM. That's one reason I'm taking my time right now. I want the next one to be better than v1.3 in all aspects.

I even went as far as as re-downloading satellites in Quick GPS but once again NO GO.
Finally I went back to v1.3 of your rom and gps has been OK since Tuesday night.
Thanks for all of your work on the rom

I think a couple of other people have mentioned GPS issues. While I still have not had any issues, this area clearly warrants more attention, so more attention it shall have. Thanks for letting me know.
